3504 Will Bush be blamed?
Women soared ahead of men in the U.S. job market in this decade. They posted a net increase of 1.7 million jobs paying above the median salary and 52.5% of the total increase in jobs.The myth still persists that there is a wage gap between the genders, but studies show when you adjust for career track behavior, sometimes women are ahead of the men who won't move, won't apply for advancement, won't take additional courses, and won't take risks.
This report (which appears in WSJ today) might leave reporters in a rut, but fortunately for them, illegal immigrants continue to depress many wage and social indicators, so they are a two-fer for the media who need to trot out sad stories of working class America about every six weeks and also report on how heartless we are not to want an open border policy.

Matthew 25.40
A favorite passage. You, of course, live your life by this, right?
I don't believe in God, so that would be a no.
But you do, so that means you should follow Christ's teachings RE: the poor, right?
Why are Mexicans less deserving of charity and mercy than Americans? Christ's injunction to give without reservation to the poor makes no national, ethnic or religious qualifier.
So Chuck, open borders to you means taking care of the poor? How about asking the very rich Mexican government (1) oil, 2) American dollars sent home, 3) tourism) to build an infrastructure and social system that benefits the Mexican people. Helping the poor means more than passing out free food and minimum wage jobs. At least you think so when in the U.S.
The streets here are not paved with gold. I say close the doors, baby!!
